Answer:
$63,000
Explanation:
Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation for the period the asset is used in the business.
Depreciation Expense = (Costs - Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated useful life
therefore,
2021
Depreciation Expense = $420000 ÷ 4 = $105,000
2022
One month has already expired, therefore the remaining useful life out of 6 years will be 5.
New Depreciable Amount = Cost - Accumulated depreciation to date
= $420,000 - $105,000
= $315,000
Depreciation expense = $315,000 ÷ 5 = $63,000
Conclusion :
the revised depreciation expense for 2022 is $63,000
Answer:
number of periods = 8 years.
Explanation:
We know,
Future Value = Present value × 
Here,
Present value = PV = $2,500
Future value = FV = $3,500
Interest rate (Compounding) = 5% = 0.05
We have to determine how many years (Periods) it will take, n = ?
Putting the values into the above formula,
$3,500 = $2,500 × 
or,
= $3,500 ÷ $2,500
or, n log 1.05 = 1.4
or, n × 0.17609 = 1.4
or, n = 1.4 ÷ 0.17609
Therefore, number of years = 7.95 or 8 years.
